This report describes a strategy to create highly electrophilic dirhodium catalysts. The electrophilicity of lantern-Type dirhodium complexes is generally decreased by the coordination of a ligand to the axial site, which often causes a reduction in the catalytic activity. We designed and synthesized a series of cationic dirhodium complexes bridged by 2-diarylphosphinopyridines having a bulky 2,4,6-Triisopropylphenyl (Tip) group that can prevent the attack of external molecules to the closest axial site. Theoretical calculations indicated that the Tip group weakly interacts with the axial site but hardly reduces the electrophilicity of the dirhodium core. The complexes served as excellent catalyst precursors for the dehydrogenative silylation of alcohols using hydrosilanes under mild conditions and a low metal loading, producing the silyl ethers in higher yields in comparison to conventional dirhodium complexes.

Practical and versatile syntheses of tertiary phosphine derivatives have been achieved by palladium-catalyzed deformylative P-C cross-coupling reactions of hydroxymethylphosphine derivatives. Sequential couplings of orthogonally protected precursors provide a simple and practical route toward a variety of tertiary phosphine derivatives having aryl substituents in any combination.
